Hive-Nectar v0.0.6 - WTF do you mean error?
Alright, pleased to announce a new release for the `hive-nectar` Python library today – **version 0.0.6** is now out!

![Push to PyPi](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/thecrazygm/23tRrJBT1pVWGcL9N2AZK81pt1RwUBiRU4TzeC3qvyP6ZPRhYMAPkfywFN4v7oerEh1da.png)

One of the long-standing frustrations many of us have probably encountered, particularly when dealing with the underlying ~~beem~~ nectar library or node interactions in general, has been the error messages. Let's be honest, sometimes they were vague, at best. When something went wrong, maybe a node acted up during a blockstream or an API call failed, you'd get an error, but figuring out the _actual_ specific reason 'why' could sometimes feel like guesswork.

Well, I'm happy to report that this release makes significant strides in fixing that! Thanks to some absolutely awesome work contributed by **@brianoflondon**, the error handling in `hive-nectar` v0.0.6 is now far more verbose.

What does this mean for you? When (not if!) things go sideways now – maybe a node gives a bad response during a blockstream, or a transaction fails for a specific reason – you should get a much clearer, more informative error message telling you pretty much exactly what failed and why. No more scratching your head over cryptic responses when a node borks on you! We used to see nodes erroring out on blockstreams and not really know the root cause; now, those reasons should be much more apparent.

So, if you're using `hive-nectar` for your Python Hive projects, I definitely recommend updating to v0.0.6 to benefit from these clearer errors. It should make debugging quite a bit easier.

You can grab the latest version from PyPI as usual:
`pip install --upgrade hive-nectar`

And you can check out the code and release details on [GitHub](https://github.com/TheCrazyGM/hive-nectar).

Hopefully, this makes building and troubleshooting your Hive applications with `hive-nectar` a smoother experience. A huge thanks again to @brianoflondon for tackling the error verbosity and making this significant improvement!

As always,
